Anyone at the end of their cycle and moving on to the next let's start a club :)
AF due in 4ish days 11 dpo with a bunch of BFNs.

I was watching Criminal Minds (as you do) and they said "Bad news stops us for a while, but then you move on. Hope is paralyzing." So I've decided to let myself move on and move and get in a positive mindset for the next.

This process can be so draining and I actually refuse to let it be my entire life :D

Thanks for listening to my TED Talk

@Anonxo who knew Criminal Minds could be so inspiring! 😂 but it’s so true, that week leading up to AF it’s the hope that makes it so tough, I find when AF comes even though it’s disappointing I almost find it a relief that at least I know I’m out and can move on to the next month.

ovulation day today for me though so only just moving into the dreaded tww

Emilyx00 · 01/03/2024 13:07

Good luck @jenkh91 !! I’m between 10-12dpo , got my peak on the 18th and remained high for another day. So latest I could have ovulated is the 21st which would put me at 9dpo today. The most I am is 12dpo but I reckon I’m around 10/11 dpo. X

Anonxo · 01/03/2024 13:32

@jenkh91 Good luck with it hopefully you have a busy time so it's not just 14 days of obsession.

I wouldn’t count yourself out just yet @Anonxo I feel like 11dpo is still quite early x

Anonxo · 01/03/2024 20:03

thanks @Adamsapple89 I guess it’s more so I stop obsessing if it happens it’ll just be a happy surprise

Hey all, hope I’m okay to join too!
I’m 10/11DPO and had a load of negative tests over the last few days, no symptoms at all so counting myself out for this cycle.

Had a possible squinter this morning (can’t even see it in photos despite all of the editing!) but I think it’s just that I know where the line should be!

Hope everyone is doing okay x

Hi I'm watching criminal minds at the moment on disney plus lol.

My period came a week late this month and its never late. Took about 20 tests all BFNs and I was gutted when it finallycame. But we can move onto this month more positive and hopefully we will see those BFPs soon. Xx

Anonxo · 02/03/2024 21:57

@moosloverlover hope your squinter turns into a huge BFP

@Choc29 Its always the worst when that happens but best thing we can do is watch criminal minds and try to have a stress free time (easier said than done) ❤️

@Anonxo started spotting tonight so I think I’m officially out! I’ll declare it as CD1 tomorrow

MelonSmoothie · 03/03/2024 09:13

Hi all, BFN 11DPO so think I'm out this time.. on to March! So frustrating. I haven't told my husband I've been testing since 8DPO, he thinks it's ridiculous and we should just wait til AF so I'm also having to pretend that we still could have a chance 🙄

moosloverlover · 03/03/2024 13:24

@MelonSmoothie ive done the exact same thing 😂 told DH im “99% sure im not pregnant” when in fact i am 100% sure based on the many, many negative tests!

Hopefully March will be the month for us x

MelonSmoothie · 03/03/2024 15:20

Hahahaha yep! I had to throw them away in a public bin 🤣

Pleonasmic · 03/03/2024 16:20

Hi folks, I'd like to join too please :) good luck to you all. I'm ovulating tomorrow according to my app and dtd today (haven't dtd any other day during fertile period but oh well). Been ttc since January. Wishing you ladies well x

Anonxo · 05/03/2024 21:38

@MelonSmoothie I have a secret bin that I chick out on bin days so I’m glad to see im not the only one that does this sort or thing.

Officially CD1 now so gonna try not to be obsessive this month and have a life outside of ttc any tips?

moosloverlover · 05/03/2024 21:48

@Anonxo I’m taking the mindset of “well a December baby would be rubbish” this month, in the hope that I can convince myself I’m not bothered!

platypusweek · 05/03/2024 22:17

Hi all,
Can I join? First official month TTC baby number two, though we did give it a bit of a whirl on CD18 last time just in case...

Period is a nightmare, currently CD14 and its still tailing off. Have had spotting before my period as well, so it's all bad.

Gynae says that it's unexplained dysfunctional bleeding and that getting pregnant would solve it, so here we are. Husband is travelling this month so we are scheduled for a solid 8 minutes of romance this evening and we need to make it count!

I haven't tracked anything at all other than dates. I'll start doing that next month if we don't manage to make it happen this time.

Anonxo · 05/03/2024 22:52

@moosloverlover i think I’ll give that a go 😅

@platypusweek the more the merrier hopefully those 8 minutes are all you need.

OP posts:
MelonSmoothie · 05/03/2024 22:55

@Anonxo that makes me feel much better, I hate lying but I know he will just roll his eyes at me...

My period is just starting and similar I really don't want another month being obsessive but it's so hard and I'm already looking ahead in the Flo app at social plans we have and there's one that's a drinks thing where I'll be about 10 DPO and I'm umming and ahhing about whether to cancel then I just check myself and think what the hell are you doing 😂🙈

Good luck! Love that it's a solid 8 minutes - could be all you need ☺️

Hey all, can I join too? This will be my third cycle properly ttc although I came off the pill at the end of Oct.
This month I am doing opk for the first time and trying to get a better idea of when I am ovulating as I have just been going by the app up to now. It’s a confusing time and so much more consuming than I thought it would be but I am loving seeing other people on the same journey.

MelonSmoothie · 06/03/2024 13:25

Hey @KitKat791 welcome!!

Just bought some of the clear blue digital ovulation tests to try this cycle. Love how they say "make love any time in the 48 hours after the smiley face".. I feel like it's not making love at this point, more a "right off we go again" 😂
